EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing a historic moment from the 1960s FA Cup Final between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea. In this iconic photograph, we see the captains of both teams, Dave Mackay of Tottenham Hotspur (left) and Ron Harris of Chelsea (right), extending a handshake before the commencement of the match. The FA Cup Final of 1967 was a highly anticipated event, with both teams determined to secure the coveted trophy. The pre-match formalities, including the handshake between the captains, added an air of respect and sportsmanship to the occasion. This gesture of goodwill was all the more significant given the intense rivalry between the two London clubs. Dave Mackay, a Scottish international and a key player for Tottenham Hotspur, led his team with determination and grit. Ron Harris, an English international and a stalwart of Chelsea's defense, was known for his toughness and resilience on the field. The two captains, despite their competitive differences, shared a moment of camaraderie before the match, setting an example for fair play and sportsmanship. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of football during the 1960s. It reminds us that despite the intensity of competition, sportsmanship and respect for one's opponents are essential values that should always be upheld. The image also serves as a reminder of the rich history of the FA Cup and the many memorable moments it has produced over the years.
